Found next to some paving slabs under a bush in a garden (not mine).
It’s got inverted dimples in it so was wondering if anyone would be concerned that it’s asbestos cement? Or is it simply a bit of paving slab...?
Have damaged undercloaking on my garage - house built in 2003 so am assuming it’s safe and asbestos free HOWEVER have heard of old stock being used and houses post 1999 containing ACMs.
It’s an estate built house though as assume this would not be the case?
Does anyone know when undercloaking...
Thanks for the reply.
What do late 60s houses with integral garages usually have as the ceiling in the garage?
And to a professional AIB and plasterboard are obviously different?
Hi I’m after some advice from more knowledgeable people than me.
Someone I know and stay with regularly has entirely renovated a late 1960s house. The house has an integral garage, the ceiling of which was removed during the renovations with new fire retardant boards put in in line with...
Thanks newboy.
I get extremely anxious about asbestos - apparently a funny thing on this board. But I'm a mother with young children who had lost a close family member to mesothelioma.
The AIB was removed professionally and a certificate of reoccupation issued the previous week. Im thinking...

But trying to rationalise it by thinking that surely they wouldn't...
So is it possible, that after an enclosed removal of asbestos that this many fibres would stay close together and not have any other material attached to them. Trying to work out if this would concern others?
went to a house recently where they'd had asbestos insulation board removed in a porch the week before. Done by a professional company in enclosure with 4 stage clearance procedure done by anslyst etc.
I have massive worries about asbestos and wouldn't have taken my kids there had I known...
When our old downstairs toilet was removed in our 1930s semi and old pipe which had been concreted in was ground down by the plumber. You can just see the old pipe in the ground at the base of the new plastic soil pipe in this pic and the concrete (or cement!) around it. The old pipe seems to be...
Just that really. I have lath and plaster ceilings in my house and one ceiling is starting to crack in places. The house was bought off an investor and re plastered throughout. I phoned him and asked him if there had previously been artexed ceilings (wanting to be informed in case the ceiling...
